Purpose: The CD38 cell surface antigen is expressed in diverse hematologic malignancies including multiple myeloma, B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and T-cell ALL. Here, we assessed the antitumor activity of the anti-CD38 antibody SAR650984.
Experimental Design: Activity of SAR650984 was examined on lymphoma, leukemia and multiple myeloma cell lines, primary multiple myeloma samples, and multiple myeloma xenograft models in immunodeficient mice.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) integrase is the enzyme responsible for insertion of a DNA copy of the viral genome into host DNA, an essential step in the replication cycle of HIV. HIV-1 integrase comprises three functional and structural domains: an N-terminal zinc-binding domain, a catalytic core domain and a C-terminal DNA-binding domain. The catalytic core domain with the F185H mutation has been crystallized without sodium cacodylate in a new crystal form, free and complexed with the catalytic metal Mg2+.
